Lies You’ve Been Told About Pain with Butch Phelps

This week’s episode is about the Three Lies That You’ve Been Told About Pain with Butch Phelps…Butch, a former corporate executive who lost 105 pounds and after developing severe low back pain, transitioned to massage therapy and neuromuscular sports massage. He discovered the Active Isolated Stretching technique and worked with neurosurgeons to understand the brain's role in muscle pain. Butch developed the Stretch and Release technique, which involves brief, repeated stretches to train the brain to release muscle tension. He has helped many with conditions like fibromyalgia and plantar fasciitis, and has published a book and created 180 YouTube videos to share his methods. Butch emphasizes that pain often originates elsewhere than the site of pain and that emotional factors significantly impact muscle tension. So let’s call in those lies Butch!!!
